The #metoo movement may have been started with good intentions, now it’s just used to ruin men’s lives
Terrence Shannon’s accuser lying for money?

If I was a single man I’d have a contract drawn up for random encounters now honestly.
Read the evidence for probable cause, it was weak as hell. There are examples of crooked DA’s all across this country. Crooked judges too. A DA would prosecute this case just to get their name in the paper or think it would help for a mayoral campaign one day. Not everyone in law has your best interests at heart or protect the rights of people, most are there to make money and that’s it.
I was looking for a basketball chat board, but walked into an incel circle J. Need a shower.
Exactly they plead out, so the state wins even against innocent people because they don’t wanna risk a long jail term. That is just as sick and most can’t afford a defense all the way to trail.
Because those in power have ruined people and this country, it’s been going on decades and they are winning.
Exactly, which is why false accusers should face harse penalties, it not only affects the innocent person they accused but infinitely hurts those who actually experienced it.
Sad thing is the only thing he was guilty of was talking to her in a crowded bar.
I don't think you know what an Incel is. I see you're one of the types where any honest social commentary. On women is frowned upon. We can never say anything about women in your eyes.
I stumbled across this while following some links on the case. The only amendment Your position is appealing in some respects, except that just as the state had to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he had raped and/or sexually abused her, in order for her to be convicted and face the same potential penalties the state should have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that she falsely accused him. Otherwise, there would be too much of a chilling effect for victims to come forward.
There are two types of victims in a scenario like this. If the horrific act occurred the victim would be obvious. If the act did not occur, the person whose reputation and perhaps career are tarnished forever would also constitute being a victim. The previous poster had a fair take, that false accusations should be weighed with the same severity as the barbaric act. If you narrow yourself to a word association game where victim means only one thing, you end up with a culture in need of serious reform.
Oh for sure. What gets me is you’d think the greats would have done an abrupt halt when their boomer kids came home on spring break.
1965 great generation parent - “ well, what have you learned at the college I was never able to attend?”
Boomer “ that you’re a sexist pos and you’ve fought wars to oppress and colonize. I’m also now an atheist and hate God”
Great generation parent - “well I’m glad for you to go back there”
It just blows my mind
Half the country is Marxist. We're in a scary place.
You know that. He was on to the right thing for sure. Lotta old jokes are reality now.
It was not as open back them, slowly radicalizing decade after decade, now it’s open to everything.
the end result is to destroy the male population so we’re easier to conquer. And it’s working more and more each year.
3rd wave feminism is what happens when we don’t allow a win to be a win. They made their gains but had to continue the grievance so they moved into new territory. Now we’re moving into child gender mutilation.
The Bible has clearly stated this was to come. We now identify evil as morality and morality as evil. There will be a lot of people held accountable that have no idea they were doing wrong. The Bible is clear there too.
Seeing parents encouraging their children to be immoral has to be the saddest sight I’ve ever seen as a parent with young kids and I hope those that promote this meet a swift demise. When you begin to brainwash children and target kids for your own sexual deviancy that’s probably the line where God moves in. The Bible is also clear about children.
Guess we’ll be hung to a cross for promoting decency and morality soon.
She should be arrested immediately for destroying his life over a lie. He's as innocent as the word itself. What's sad about this is a few people will assume he did.
When he is proven innocent, which he was, then life continues and he should be able to countersue.
Suspending a kid pending an investigation doesn’t mean they are guilty. It just means everything stops until the trial is over.
This is common practice.
I'm curious how you would know this, since, you know, you've only been here since May 9......
Countersue for what exactly? Is his accuser about to become the millionaire? She was after his money because she presumably doesn't have much of her own, if any.

So you’re okay with a woman being in close proximity to you (your son?) at work in an office or in a store away from cameras, going to the police saying you sexually assaulted her (when in fact you might not have even been near her), and your work suspending you or your son father (whatever), making it known to everyone who knows you you’re suspended for potential sexual assault. You’re really okay with that? Would you actually encourage this?
I think these things in theory make some sense but I highly doubt you’d be okay with that happening to you or someone you love. Contrary to popular opinion women do lie about sexual assault and we have trouble even defining it today. I wouldn’t want that for you or your family anymore than this guy.
The world isn’t perfect but to protect the innocent sometimes the guilty get by. One innocent persons reputation and life being ruined over false allegations is too much. It’s why I’m against the death penalty and always have been, if you can’t guarantee an innocent man won’t die then it needs to be done away with.
I actually worked with a guy in Tennessee that was the “believe all women” type and a woman lied about sexual assault in his office ( total BS he would never). We all knew it we’d BS but he was suspended to investigate and he went absolutely insane over it. He was scared out of his mind for two weeks. I told him what I’m saying now, he encouraged that type of thing until it was him who was under the gun. I work in mental health and see this kind of thing from time to time. Lots of women cry sexual assault when nothing at all happened. I will not close my door with a woman inside my office for this reason. If my work has a problem with it they’ve been told everywhere I’ve been to let me go.

You do realize you don't actually need an account to view the site and read the content, right?
You also realize you can view old threads anytime as well, right?
Yep, I also realize that you are absolutely FoS if you claim that either applies to you.
For the record, I'm not arguing the points you made about his innocence, as I actually agree. Just tired of all these "new" posters who are obviously retreads, particularly the ones who can't seem to help themselves when it comes to attacking UK fans.
What is the rationalization of suspending based on allegations?
If he was proven innocent, then she lied and intentionally tried to ruin his life.
She needs to do jail time. What a horrible person. Willing to destroy someone's life in order gain some money? Terrible person

Because they've been brainwashed by the me2 movement that if a woman makes an "accusation" then it's 100% true no matter what. That is DANGEROUS people! Innocent until PROVEN guilty is an important part of our justice system.
And not to mention, the weaponization of allegations against star athletes to impact the outcomes of sports.
This ×1000, but really with anything. Sports, politics, business and any form of leader or public figure.
Aside from that, can someone explain how suspending him from basketball activities, where he competes against other males, has any bearing on the safety of the alleged victim or other females?
It's dumbfounding to read about what happened in the Duke lacrosse case (almost 20 years ago now).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_lacrosse_case
Investigation and resolution of the case sparked public discussion of racism, sexual violence, media bias, and due process on campuses. The former lead prosecutor, Durham County District Attorney Mike Nifong, ultimately resigned in disgrace, and was disbarred and briefly imprisoned for violating ethics standards.

My now-Ex-wife knew the defense counsel of that case (a few years after the case) when she worked for the lawyer association he was a top member of, so yeah I heard a few stories about that case, as well as John Edwards showing up to their convention with his mistress before it became public that he was ....It's dumbfounding to read about what happened in the Duke lacrosse case (almost 20 years ago now).
